Great lesson for book study!!!
Certain points really resonated with me individually.

It's easy to see things in b&w even though we're aware that not all matters are. The part of the lesson that touched on TRUTH was very appropriate; how depending on the circumstances individuals might reach into that "Grey area" between the exact truth of a matter and the technicalities surrounding the truth.

Considering this specific topic one series of events in my recent past makes SO much more sense to me now than at the time. In my experience I knew that I was telling the truth, COMPLETELY, yet somehow I still struck a sour chord.

Where we considered how some employ manipulation or exclusion of the truth for their convenience...

This helped clear up SO much for me!
In my experience, if someone is dealing in a totally truthful manner things tend to be less complicated. If some issue should arise it can be solved with minimal incident (hurt feelings, severed ties etc.)==What I'm used to.

On the opposite end of the spectrum, it's interesting to note how an individual caught in a series of partial truths perhaps because they don't want to lie yet are not willing to own up to their short coming(s) might INSTEAD take a defensive and very hostile position.==What I observed.

Oh well, know I know my honesty ruffled some feathers and scratched a guilty conscience ;)
